Hunter Tylo (Dr. Taylor Marone on The Bold and the Beautiful) has been named celebrity spokesperson at the First Annual Wings of Hope Benefit in support of the American Epilepsy Outreach Association.

The event will be held at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum in Chicago, Illinois on Friday, June 13.

Sadly, as most soap opera fans know Tylo lost her son Mickey last October in a seizure-related incident; he drowned in the family's pool.
